It makes me a little antsy to land on Moontown's 2100' runway, but I do
it on occasion, especially touch and goes, and I used most of it. But
it has clear approaches....large grass field on one end, and a crossing
road on a five foot high berm on the other....just watch for cars! If
the runway you are looking at is shorter and has has trees on one end,
it becomes a one-way airport, which is somewhat hazardous with regards
to winds.
